Chapter 34: Despise Him?

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Mu Jingzhe had a headache. “No, Mu Xue, you’ve really misunderstood!”

She explained as quickly as she could. “I’m really not interested in Tang Moling and have never wanted to snatch him away from you. I really don’t have any feelings for him.”

Had she eaten too much, or was she so tired of living that she wanted to snatch away the male lead?

She didn’t have a death wish.

Mu Xue still didn’t believe her, so she gritted her teeth.

“I can swear that even if Tang Moling was the only man left in this world, I wouldn’t take another look at him!”

Mu Jingzhe was forced to swear.

Tang Moling stood aside, feeling completely ignored.

He felt tired.

Mu Jingzhe was also exhausted. “It’s really true. Mu Xue, I hope you believe me.”

At the moment, the scene was very similar to a scene of the female supporting character fighting with the female lead over the male lead. However, only God knew that Mu Jingzhe vehemently refused to have anything to do with the male and female lead. If one looked at the whole novel, one would notice that those related to them didn’t meet a good end.

Mu Jingzhe adopted her most sincere attitude and finally explained herself. She then left.

Mu Xue and Tang Moling were left alone.

Though Mu Xue had said that she had gotten the wrong idea about them before, she avoided Tang Moling’s gaze.

It was because she felt a subtle discomfort in her heart. Previously, Tang Moling had been so powerful and different from the people she had met. She had felt his charm completely then.

However, Tang Moling, who was high and mighty in her heart, had been pinned down by Mu Jingzhe just like that.

This made her feel a little awkward, as if something had collapsed in her.

Tang Moling was also a little distracted. He couldn’t help but think about Mu Jingzhe’s words. She had said that she would not take another look at him even if all the men in the world died.

He ought to be happy that she was helping him clear up this misunderstanding, yet he felt very awkward.

Did she despise him?

It had been like this before, and now it was like this again?

Both of them were distracted and unhappy.

After Tang Moling was subdued, the children were all eager to learn martial arts. They even fantasized about going to the Shaolin Temple to learn martial arts and become experts.

Who had never dreamed of going to Shaolin and Wudang? Mu Jingzhe didn’t say anything and even encouraged them to go when they had the chance.

Going to different places would allow them to gain more knowledge. When the time came, they could regard it as traveling.

Two days later, before dawn, Mu Jingzhe took a big bag full of goods and went out with Li Zhaodi and Mu Teng, who went to the market to sell buns.

When they arrived in town, it was dawn.

While Li Zhaodi and Mu Teng set up the stall, Mu Jingzhe went to the county and then the city.

The trip to the city went quite smoothly. She handed over the goods and even received a new order. A foreign boss was even introduced to Mu Jingzhe.

After negotiating, she went to get more supplies. This was a fruitful trip.

By the time she reached the town, it was already dark. She then rushed home with Li Zhaodi and Mu Teng, who had been waiting for her.

The next day, Mu Jingzhe took a look at the materials she had bought and took Shao Zhong with her to hire some workers.

Now that life was slowly getting better, people had spare money to buy accessories and hair ornaments. The more well-developed the place, the more obvious this was. Thanks to her rebirth and existing foundation, her hair ornaments sold well, so the number of orders would probably only increase in the future.

Under the circumstances, she couldn’t do this alone. She had to find some people to do it with her.

This wasn’t a problem. There were quite a few young ladies in the village who were skilled in needlework and threading. She could ask them to work for her and pay them a wage; it was a mutually beneficial arrangement.

Mu Jingzhe had already made up her mind. She would ask three people to help her first and see how things went.

This time, not only did she buy fabric for the head flower, but she also bought beads and other materials, as she wanted to develop an accessory line.

She wanted to try making necklaces, bracelets, and earrings.

Mu Jingzhe’s search went very smoothly. The people she found were all good people with a reputation for being hardworking in the village. When they heard that they would be paid according to the number of pieces they made and would be given the money at the end of each day, they came over in spite of their doubts.

The simple production process began.

Mu Jingzhe was mainly responsible for matching the colors and coming up with the design and cutting, while her three workers would follow suit.

The rest of the time, Mu Jingzhe continued to teach Shao Dong and Shao Xi at home. She was kept rather busy.

However, it was good that the house was lively. It felt like Shao Zhong had become more daring now.

For the first two days, the villagers didn’t know what Mu Jingzhe and the others were doing. They only saw the three of them going to Mu Jingzhe’s house. Later on, they found out that they were going to Mu Jingzhe’s house to help her make accessories and hair ornaments.

Everyone was skeptical. However, the money that the three of them received at the end of each day was real.

In a short time, Mu Jingzhe became the hottest topic of discussion in the village. Everyone was talking about the hair ornaments she made, and many people came up to ask if they could work for her as well.

Mu Jingzhe calmed them down, saying she wasn’t certain.

After a few days, Mu Jingzhe left for the city before dawn. This time, she didn’t return.

Fortunately, Mu Jingzhe had said that this might happen. Shao Qiyang was also at home.

The next day, Shao Qiyang couldn’t help but come out when he saw that she hadn’t returned even though it was almost afternoon.

In the end, he saw Mu Jingzhe, who was covered in bags, in town.

“Thank goodness you came to pick me up. Otherwise, I really don’t know how I would’ve gotten back.”

She was strong, but there were too many things. She couldn’t carry all of them with her two hands.

“What is this?”

“Materials.” Mu Jingzhe’s face was covered in sweat, but her eyes were sparkling. “There’s another big order.”

This time, it wasn’t just hair ornaments. The necklaces she’d brought along were also sold out. She had received another order and had even been given a deposit.

Mu Jingzhe felt that she could make a small fortune.

Shao Qiyang borrowed a bicycle and, in combination with Mu Jingzhe’s tremendous strength, they transported the items home.

“If everything goes well, we’ll be able to buy a bicycle after this delivery. Life will be more convenient then. You can also ride it to deliver letters.”

Shao Qiyang was stunned. “You mean you’ll be buying it?”

“No, I mean, are you interested in buying a bicycle together? It’s a little difficult for me to buy a bicycle directly now, and it’s difficult for you too. Why don’t we buy a bicycle together first and then buy another one later?”

Mu Jingzhe’s little plan had been implemented without a hitch.

Shao Qiyang had a different feeling when he heard this, though. To him, it felt like the two of them were working hard for this small family and would be buying a bicycle together.

This was the day he’d dreamed of. A couple supporting each other after marriage…

His dream had been realized by Mu Jingzhe.

“Sure.” He agreed and sped up, wanting the wind to cool him down.

This time, Mu Jingzhe found another young lady to work for her.

Now that she had four workers, other than designing and teaching them at the start, she no longer had to make the accessories herself.

Even so, she was still very busy. It was only occasionally that she was able to focus on designing at night.

The four young ladies, who came to her house to work, were completely relieved from doing housework. These days, their families would help them wash their clothes and call them when their meals were ready. They would come to work every morning and get off at night.

This business wasn’t a factory, but it resembled one. Because too many people came to ask if she was hiring, Mu Jingzhe had no choice but to temporarily close the door.

Because of Mu Jingzhe and the four women who earned money every day, the atmosphere in the village had changed.

Everyone wanted to earn money and eagerly waited for Mu Jingzhe to hire more people.

In the blink of an eye, Mu Jingzhe, who’d originally had a bad reputation in the village, had become a popular figure.

When Mu Jingzhe and Shao Qiyang really bought the bicycle, the atmosphere reached its climax.

Their home was bustling with life these days. It was completely different from the miserable state everyone had imagined they would be in after they’d split up the family assets.

Everyone was laughing at Zhao Lan and the eldest branch of the Shao Family. They had only split up the family assets shortly before this. If they hadn’t done so, they would have been able to benefit from this business.
